Trenchless Technology

Trenchless technology allows for the placement of casing

under freeways, canals, roads, railroad, light rail tracks

and anywhere else that open cutting or disturbing the

surface is not feasible. These options place steel casing

in sizes ranging from 8” to over 120” to carry a variety of

carrier line types and sizes.

SSC has the experience, equipment and resources

to perform crossings utilizing a variety of trenchless

methods including:

4Horizontal Earth Auger Boring

4Hand Tunnelling

4Small Boring Unit (SBU)

4Boring Machine Tunnel Attachment (BMTA)

4Pneumatic Pipe Ramming

All of these options follow a similar procedure of working

out of a bore pit to form a bore or tunnel horizontally

through the earth to a reception pit while the steel casing

is jacked into place where the earth has been removed.

The carrier line (utility) is then jacked or pushed into the

steel casing once it is fully installed.

The choice of methodology is dependent on a multitude

of factors including soil conditions, jobsite access, length

and size of casing, time constraints and type of carrier

line being installed. SSC has the experience in these

and many other methods to help make your project

successful.

Vacuum Excavation

Vacuum excavation is a process of utilizing the kinetic

energy of a high velocity air stream, generated by air

compressors, to penetrate, expand and break up soil that

can then be removed from the hole with a powerful

vacuum. SSC is equipped with a fleet of Vacuum Trucks

that are built to complete this process in a safe and

efficient manner.

Vacuum excavation can be used in a multitude of

applications including:

4Utility Locating and Mapping

4Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)

4Trenching or vertically excavating in areas

highly congested with utilities

4Debris removal

4Confined space excavation

SSC’s preferred method of vacuum excavating is utiliz-

ing air. However, we understand that some projects and

clients require hydro-vac services and we are equipped to

meet those needs.

In addition to performing vacuum excavating, SSC’s team

includes a CAD technician to convert the field maps into

computerized format for use in the design of projects.

SSC will also coordinate permits, traffic control and any

required backfill or surface patching that clients require.

Contact SSC today to find out more about how our

vacuum excavation services can improve the efficiency

and safety of your next project!

Consulting and Education

SSC can help you overcome challenges by bringing

more than four decades of experience to your project as

consultants. At the engineering, design or construction

phase, this knowledgeable team is available to review

geotechnical reports, project specifications and plans to

advise on feasible trenchless options for the installation

of utilities. SSC has been proud to be a member of

multiple design-build and construction manager at risk

teams, helping to successfully and safely construct many

high-profile projects.

In addition to consulting, SSC has a passion for educating

the construction community on the benefits and

capabilities of trenchless technology and vacuum

excavating. Third generation owner Arvid Veidmark III

has spoken at conferences internationally, presenting

case studies of real world trenchless projects and first

hand experience. Closer to home he also conducts Lunch

and Learn sessions with local engineering firms and

municipalities to teach how to incorporate trenchless

methodologies into the projects that they design, along

with the benefits of vacuum potholing/SUE at the design

and construction phase.

SSC’s team of experts look forward to the opportunity to

put their decades of knowledge and hands-on experience

to work for you! We are known throughout our industry

for our ability to innovate practical solutions without

sacrificing safety. Call us and allow our expertise to make

your next project a success!

Trenchless Rehabilitation & Other Services

Not all projects call for a new utility line to be placed –

sometimes the path is there and the existing line needs

to either be replaced, expanded or repaired. As existing

underground infrastructure ages, demand is growing for

the ability to rehabilitate utility lines. SSC is equipped to

offer services that can be utilized for this purpose. Some

options are:

4Centrifugally Cast Concrete Pipe (CCCP):

creates a concrete coating inside of

deteriorating water lines and storm drains

4Slip Lining: Pulls and places a liner inside of

water and sewer lines to extend their useful life

4Pipe Bursting: Using pneumatics, existing lines

are burst, leaving a void that a new (sometimes

larger) line can be installed in

As with new trenchless construction, the method chosen

for rehabilitating utility lines is dependent on many

factors. SSC can help you evaluate the project and select

the best option for your situation.

In addition to providing all of these new and rehab

trenchless services, SSC is equipped and staffed to

provide the support services that make these projects

possible including:

4Digging bore and reception pits

4Shoring

4Welding and placing casing in open

cut excavations

4Skidding carrier lines

SSC’s mission is to be your one-stop contractor for all

trenchless needs. Call us today at (602) 997-6164 or visit
